How can we believe
What anyone says
With all our secrets and all our  lies
That through the years should have opened our eyes
That have made so many worlds collide
Reality
No one is ever who they seem
The secrets and lies and all in between
Something wrong with the fairytales and the dreams
It seems we have gone to extremes
Trying to think of some kind of scheme
To hide all the secrets and lies
All the time hidden and denied
Where none of the rules applies
Always defied none that we can ever abide by
It seems
How can we feel there is nothing to be redeemed
By keeping secrets and telling lies
Up until the time, it is time for us to die
Then we look up into the skies
To ask the Lord to forgive
All our secrets
and
All our lies
Hoping there will not be any denies

Honesty:
The quality of being honest!
